English : Partial replacement of feed protein with shrimp waste meal in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) diets
Arabic : الاحلال الجزئى لبروتين العليقة بمسحوق مخلفات الجمبرى في علائق البلطى النيلى
Abstract Partial replacement of feed protein with shrimp waste meal was done in four experimental diets for Nile tilapia fly (Oreochromis niloticus L.) at 0. 10,20 and 30% substitution levels (T1,. T2. T3 and T4, respectively). The experimental diets were applied for 180 tilapia each of 1.4 g initial weight which were stocked randomly in to 12 aerated aquaria (60 x 40 x 30 cm) during the experiment period of 64 days. Results indicated that, chemical analysis of shrimp meal showed that it contains high percentages of CP (49%) and ash (26.35); however. it contains low contents of EE (3.32%), CF (10.48%) and NFE (10.85%). Also, the final weight of Nile tilapia decreased significantly (P < 0.05) with increasing shrimp meal level in the tested diets up to 30% as a replace of feed protein. The results showed that the highest weight gain. SGR, PER. PPV and EU% was achieved with T1 T2 and T3 compared with T4 In conclusion, shrimp meal from the nutritionally and economically points of view is a non-conventional animal protein source in Nile tilapia feeding up to 20% of feed protein. Keywords: Nile tilapia. Shrimp waste meal, Growth performance, Body composition, Economic evaluation.
